I can see two arguments for it
1. there are certain red lines the mods don't want to cross, e.g. real names/addresses which can then be trivially googled. I mean, the top Google result for 'r*b f**rh*lme p*rth' is currently a qotw answer with the excerpt "R*b F**rh*lme of P*rth flirts online using his ex-wife's daughter as a profile picture", which I guess isn't what he wants his fellow school governors to find.
2. it's not just about the experienced users who know about 2.0 etc., it's about making the site welcoming to new users, because without new users the site will die on its arse. Yeah, ok.
Not sure I necessarily believe either of them (new users go straight to reddit these days, right?) but I can at least see the logic.
